Interaction of Mal de Río Cuarto virus (Fijivirus genus) proteins and identification of putative factors determining viroplasm formation and decay
(2017)Mal de Río Cuarto virus (MRCV) is a member of the Fijivirus genus, within the Reoviridae family, that repli-cates and assembles in cytoplasmic inclusion bodies called viroplasms. In this study, we investigatedinteractions ... -
Interferon lambda protects cattle against bovine viral diarrhea virus infection
(Elsevier, 2020-12)Interferon lambda (IFN-λ) plays an important role in inducing an antiviral state in mucosal surfaces and has been used as an effective biotherapeutic against several viral diseases. Here we performed a proof of concept ... -
International interlaboratory validation of a nested PCR for molecular detection of Babesia bovis and Babesia bigemina, causative agents of bovine babesiosis
(Elsevier, 2022-04)Babesia bovis and B. bigemina are tick-transmitted parasites causing bovine babesiosis, characterized by significant morbidity and mortality leading to economic losses to the livestock industry in tropical and subtropical ... -

(2017)The aim of the present study was to assess the responses of the gonopodium morphology and the gonadal and liver histology of adult male Cnesterodon decemmaculatus to sublethal long-term exposure concentrations of ... -
Intraguild predation by Tupiocoris cucurbitaceus on Encarsia formosa and its influence on biological control of Trialeurodes vaporariorum
(Department of Agroenvironmental Sciences and Technologies, Università di Bologna, 2023-01-23)The predator Tupiocoris cucurbitaceus (Spinola) and the parasitoid Encarsia formosa Gahan are natural enemies of Trialeurodes vaporariorum (Westwood) that can be found simultaneously in greenhouse tomato crops. Whether or ... -
The intranasal vaccination of pregnant dams with Intimin and EspBconfers protection in neonatal mice from Escherichia coli (EHEC)O157:H7 infection
(2016-05)Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) O157:H7 is responsible for intestinal disease and hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS), a serious systemic complication which particularly affects children. In this study, we evaluated ... -
Intrinsic and extrinsic factors related to pathogen infection in wild small mammals in intensive milk cattle and swine production systems
(2017)Background: Understanding the ecological processes that are involved in the transmission of zoonotic pathogens by small mammals may aid adequate and effective management measures. Few attempts have been made to analyze ... -
Isolation and characterization of the tissue and development-specific potato snakin-1 promoter inducible by temperature and wounding
(Pontificia Universidad Catolica de Valparaiso, 2010-09)Snakin-1 (StSN1) is a broad-spectrum antimicrobial peptide isolated from Solanum tuberosum. Homologous proteins have been identified in a wide range of species but there is no apparent consensus in the roles they play. A ... -
Isolation and clinical sample typing of human leptospirosis cases in Argentina
(2016)Leptospira typing is carried out using isolated strains. Because of difficulties in obtaining them, direct identification of infective Leptospira in clinical samples is a high priority.Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) ... -
Isolation and identification of culturable gut microbiota in the larval stage of lesser mealworm (Alphitobius diaperinus)
(Sciforum, 2023-11-30)The highly prevalent pest Alphitobius diaperinus (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) causes significant structural damage in poultry farms. Despite previous investigations on its carriage of pathogenic microorganisms, our understanding ... -
Isolation and molecular characterization of Clostridium perfringens from healthy Merino lambs in Patagonia region, Argentina
(2016)The presence and molecular characterization of Clostridium perfringens in healthy Merino lambs over a six-month period was investigated in this study. Overall, a high prevalence of C. perfringens was detected, even in ... -
Isolation of Brucella suis biovar 1 from a pig breeding farm in Brazil. Case report
(2016)The objective of this study was to confirm the occurrence of swine brucellosis by isolating Brucella suis from an outbreak that occurred in December 2012 in a Certified Pig Breeding Farm (Granja de Reprodutores Suínos ... -
Isolation of Pseudobutyrivibrio ruminis and Pseudobutyrivibrio xylanivorans from rumen of Creole goats fed native forage diet
(Springer, 2013-09)We isolated and identified functional groups of bacteria in the rumen of Creole goats involved in ruminal fermentation of native forage shrubs. The functional bacterial groups were evaluated by comparing the total viable, ... -
Isolation of saprophytic Leptospira spp. from a selected environmental water source of Argentina = Aislamiento de Leptospira spp. saprófitas desde fuentes de agua en un ambiente seleccionado de Argentina
(2018-09)Ten Leptospira spp. strains were isolated from water samples from Nievas stream, Olavarría, Buenos Aires province (Argentina). The isolates showed the typical motility and morphology of the genus Leptospira under dark field ... -
K-mer counting and curated libraries drive efficient annotation of repeats in plant genomes
(Wiley, 2021-09)The annotation of repetitive sequences within plant genomes can help in the interpretation of observed phenotypes. Moreover, repeat masking is required for tasks such as whole-genome alignment, promoter analysis, or pangenome ... -
The key role of the largest extant Neotropical frugivore (Tapirus terrestris) in promoting admixture of plant genotypes across the landscape
(2016)The historical and contemporary loss of large-bodied frugivores has disrupted many plant-disperser mutualisms, with potentially profound consequences for plants. Although several aspects of seed dispersal by megafrugivores ... -
Kinetic characterization of a novel cysteine peptidase from the protozoan Babesia bovis, a potential target for drug design
